AltspaceVR is shutting down as Microsoft’s mixed reality division shrinks

“We look forward to what’s to come, including our launch of Microsoft Mesh, a new platform for connection and collaboration, starting with enabling workplaces around the world,” AltspaceVR writes in its announcement. “In the near term, we are focusing our VR efforts on workplace experiences, learning from and working with our early customers and partners, and ensuring we deliver a foundation that enables safety, trust and compliance. Over time, we hope to extend this to the consumer experience[s] good.”
